Biomechanics: 'Off-road' mode enables mobile cells to move freely

Cancer cells and leukocytes are able to move through tissue and organs quickly. However, it is not fully understood how these mobile cells manage to travel and survive far away from their place of origin. Scientists have now revealed a general biomechanical principle of cell migration that allows cells to move freely, especially in rough terrain.
